Louis and Timothy were both frustrated.

How could they possibly have kept Victor at bay with such a lack of sincerity in the negotiations? Now, they could only hope that Rafael would complete the rescue mission before Victor returned. If not, the consequences would be dire.

Meanwhile, Rafael had successfully rescued Law.

Upon exiting, he discovered that a fierce battle raged outside. Several of Thomas' group were already injured, but they hadn't suffered too much with Everett present. However, the enemy's numbers were increasing rapidly. They needed to retreat quickly.

As Rafael dashed out, a dozen enemies closed in on him. With a swift leap into the air, he handed Law off to Dylan, who carried the injured man on his back and quickly disappeared into the night.

Rafael used his Lightfoot Skill to return and assist the others in their escape. If they managed to rescue one person only to have several others captured, the mission would be considered a failure.

With Sunstrike in his hand, Rafael flew straight to Jacob's side. He cut through the soldiers surrounding Jacob with a powerful swing, driving them back with sheer force.

Everett was facing off against the enemy's elite forces. Even though Victor had taken many of his top fighters to the negotiations, a dozen had stayed behind. Seeing that Rafael had already rescued Law and they no longer needed to guard the iron door, Everett unleashed his full strength and fought in earnest.

His and Rafael's combined skills were nearly unstoppable. However, the sheer number of enemies made it difficult for everyone to escape. They could only help one person at a time, rescuing each in turn.
